Unplugging!
Jan. 12th, 2013 01:10 pmGoing to spend 24 hours of sunday without media altogether - no phone, no mobile, no iPod, no television, no radio, no magazines, no newspapers and no computer!!
Was fascinated by University of Maryland's day-without-media study and distant memories of my mostly-media-free childhood (no computer, no TV, no mobile devices - did have magazines, newspapers, radio though) and so my friend George and I will be doing this 24 hour experiment to see what happens.
I know in the past I've oddly enjoyed times when my computer has been broken as it's something like a forced meditation retreat.
I'll let you know how it goes ... it's too extreme for me to want to be like that all the time though!
